CXO300 OWNER’S MANUAL
4.1 ENGINE INSTALLATION
The process of installing and calibrating your CXO300 diesel outboard(s) is complex and highly
dependent on the vessel-outboard combination.
Cox Powertrain strongly recommends the outboard(s), controls and rigging be installed and
calibrated by an authorized Cox Powertrain dealer. Failure to use an authorized Cox Powertrain
dealer can invalidate your warranty.
Refer to the CXO300 installation manual or contact an authorized Cox Powertrain
dealer for more detail.
CAUTION
CXO300 outboards are shipped without powerhead and transmission oil. Make sure the powerhead
and transmission oils are at the recommended fill level prior to operating your outboard(s). Failure to
follow this procedure could result in severe damage to your outboard(s).
4.2 FUEL AND OIL
Diesel fuel
The CXO300 has been validated and certified using diesel fuels complying with fuel standards EN 590
and ASTM D975 No.2-D. Operating on fuels with properties outside of these standards may lead to
unacceptable emissions levels, increased fuel consumption, accelerated outboard wear and outboard
damage which may invalidate your warranty.
It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure the outboard(s) are only operated on Ultra Low Sulfur
Diesel (ULSD) fuel in compliance with the above standards.
CAUTION
Do not install any fuel line components onto your vessel or outboard(s) made from copper or brass
materials or which are zinc-plated. Use of such components could lead to premature wear and
failure of your outboard’s fuel system and may invalidate your warranty. Thermoplastic components,
rated for use with diesel fuels, should be used.
